Biography

My mission is to keep exploring and evolving as an artist. I want to continue to produce art which is as original and inspiring as I can possibly create within my vision and capabilities. Ultimately I want to produce art that can create positive connections with people. As artists we appreciate approval or endorsement and nothing is as rewarding as when a customer takes ownership of one of my works and hangs it in their home!

inspiration

Inspiration comes without warning generally - from anywhere and at any time! Much of my art is based on distilling down complex subject matter into more simplistic forms so often a quick snap or rough scribble is often the start of one of my pictures or designs. I love to walk and cycle and I am only a few minutes from my local countryside in Worcester, so it’s here that I manage to gain a lot of inspiration and the seedlings for ideas from the fauna and flora, landscapes and wildlife.

medium

I use a scalpel to cut and combine hand cut elements or layers with mixed-media.Typically I use different types of papers and card with different finishes and textures. I also use hand-painted layers using various methods and sheet metals and foils too which I often burnish or flame-paint!

I am guilty of going ‘off piste’ on occasion when it comes to my typical hand cut style, and in particular I do venture into digital illustration to create print versions and cards of some of my originals!
